A bi-amplified (passive mid/high crossover) or tri-amplified 3-way full range system in a trapezoidal enclosure. Includes 2x 12-in woofers (separated vertically), a horn-loaded 10-in MF cone with Radial Phase Plug™ and a 1.4-in exit/2.5-in voice coil HF neodymium compression driver on a 60° x 45° constant directivity horn.

The AS660e is engineered for use in permanent installations. Optimized subsections provide excellent full range frequency response in a medium format enclosure. Includes comprehensive 3/8"-16 mounting/suspension points. Six year warranty.

The bi-amplified or tri-amplified 3-way full range loudspeaker system shall incorporate 2x 12-in vented LF transducers, a horn-loaded 10-in MF cone with Radial Phase Plug™ and a

1.4-in exit/2.5-in voice coil HF neod ymium compression driver

The LF drivers shall be mounted in slanted baffles and separated vertically. The MF d river shall be load ed in to a mi d r ange horn constructed of 1/8-in birch plywood backed with high density polyurethane foam. The HF driver shall be loaded on a constant directivity horn with a nominal coverage pattern of 60° (h) x 45° (v). An internal passive filter network shall provide fourth order acoustical crossover and system equalization between the MF and HF subsystems.

System frequency response shall vary no more than ±3 dB from 67 Hz to 15 kHz measured on axis . The mi d/hi gh secti on shall produce a Sound Pressure Level (SPL) of 107 dB SPL on axis at 1 meter with a power input of 1 Watt, and shall be capable of producing a peak output of 139 dB SPL on axis at 1 meter. The low frequency section shall produce a Sound Pressure Level (SPL) of 102 dB SPL on axis at 1 meter with a power input of 1 Watt, and shall be capable of producing a peak output of 137 dB SPL on axis at 1 meter. The mid frequency section shall produce a Sound Pressure Level (SPL) of 109 dB SPL on axis at 1 meter with a power input of 1 Watt, and shall be capable of producing a peak output of 141 dB SPL on axis at 1 meter. The high fr equency section shall produce a Sound Pressure Level (SPL) of 109 dB SPL on axis at 1 meter with a power input of 1 Watt, and shall be capable of producing a peak output of 136 dB SPL on axis at 1 meter. The mid/high section shall handle 450 Watts of amplifier power (continuous) and shall have a nominal impedance of 8 Ohms. The low frequency section shall handle 800 Watts of amplifier power (continuous) and shall have a nominal impedance of 4 Ohms. The mid frequency section shall handle 400 Watts of amplifier power (continuous) and shall have a nominal impedance of 8 Ohms. The high frequency section shall handle 125 Watts of amplifier power (continuous) and shall have a nominal impedance of 8 Ohms.

The loudspeaker enclosure shall be trapezoidal in shape. It shall be constructed of multi-ply, void-free, cross-grain-laminated, exterior grade, Baltic birch plywood and shall employ extensive internal bracing. It shall be finished in wear-resistant textured black paint. Input connectors shall be 2x 6-contact terminal strips, jumpers used for powerin g configur ati on. Eighteen (18) 3/8"-16 threaded mounting/suspension points (4 each on top, bottom and sides, 2 on back) shall be provided. The front of the loudspeaker shall be covered with a powder coated perforated steel grille.

The bi-amplified or tri-amplified 3-way full range loudspeaker shall be the EAW model AS660e.
